# Metroid: sold-price estimates (nes)

Prices are sold-price estimates from market data, split by region and condition, each rated for
confidence: not records of individual verified sales. "Sealed" reports listing claims, never verified factory authenticity.
They're a guide, not an offer: a game is worth what someone pays for it, and shops, markets and local sales can be higher or
lower. Condition, photos and the seller's reputation move a price within the range (p25 to p75).
With only 2 sales that disagree 3 times or more ("2 sales far apart"), p25 and p75 are those two sales and the median is
never their average: a sale far off what the game's other prices predict is set aside, otherwise the middle of the two
leans on that prediction.
A boxed (CIB) price spans the box's condition: p25 ≈ a worn box (tears, stickers, crushing), median = typical, p75 and up ≈ an
excellent box. The box here is a cardboard box (pal), a cardboard box (ntsc), a cardboard box (ntscj).

| region | tier | median | p25 to p75 | n | confidence |
|--------|------|--------|---------|---|------------|
| ntsc | cib | $186 | $127 to $235 | 32 | high |
| ntsc | loose | $23 | $20 to $25 | 20 | high |
| ntsc | sealed | $2,500 | $880 to $4,860 | 23 | good |
| pal | cib | $244 | $158 to $329 | 28 | high |
| pal | loose | $43 | $37 to $65 | 4 | guess |
| pal | sealed | $433 | $411 to $697 | 5 | good |
